'163' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a black jacket and skirt. The jacket features a row of buttons down the front and is adorned with a decorative trim around the collar and pockets. The skirt falls just below the knee, and the woman's left hand is positioned at her side, while her right hand is held out in front of her. The drawing is rendered in black ink on a cream-colored background, with subtle shading that adds depth to the image. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of high fashion. To learn more about the artist's technique, explore the art of cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
